Bias Review towards RUNYUUUUU!

Ashes of Love ended in the process almost everybody wants it to end. The unstoppable love between Xu Feng and Jin Mi, despite of all the challenges that comes their way, satisfied most of its viewers, making this program a high-rated one. This drama, however, gave me throbbing and torturesome second lead syndrome as it makes the Fish Fairy hostile and unsympathetic from being warm and friendly individual. You can hate me for siding with Runyu the way you hate him when he was filled with greed and revenge after extreme grief and misery, but I would strongly insist that in this drama, he's the best character yet was just given with the worst fate. He was able to endure his tragic fate during his childhood, the criticisms thrown to him when he became a prince and all the hate and conspiracies he received when he was appointed as heavenly emperor but seriously, you cannot blame him if he selfishly wanted to be with Jin Mi. He has been alone and lonely ever since he was young, always been wronged and condemned, betrayed and misunderstood, and in the end, punished and left behind. In this drama, however, He's the only one who made me cry. Thanks to the production who gave emphasis on all his excruciating agony, he gained my empathy and respect. I never find his character annoying (maybe because it's the sophisticated Luo Yunxi who played it). His acting was most amazing part. It's even more awesome when the cold Runyu became playful after Puchi pretended to be him. Though a villain, he deserve more love. Though the story is not so good for him, he still managed to encourage me in watching it. Thank you for not dying in the end.

Another couple to embrace and another drama to go after. Chen Xiao Qian is a feminist screenwriter who unexpectedly gets stuck in a parallel world where her story has come to life (How I wish everybody can be present in a world they write). As a 3rd princess who's not supposed to live long in the story, she made her own destiny, strove hard to survive and meet and stayed with the arrogant-to-softhearted-to-mischievous Prince Han Shuo. Featuring Ryan Ding & Zhao Lu Si, whom I've already love since Oh! My Emperor and Love Better than Immortality, this drama will surely make every viewers laugh and cry.

The Chang'An Youth ended so suddenly. I'm gonna miss them so much especially the Crown Prince who stayed single at the end of the show.. (I'm not going to miss Uwen because I believe she's preparing for another drama and I'm going to see her soon, Jiayou!!)

Story..
- Though the story ended happily for the Five Scholars of Shangyi School, it honestly doesn't give me complete satisfaction. In the beginning, I was preparing myself for a very deep and intense storyline since they are all scholars and I'm pretty sure, there will be a lot of investigations against the bad men who tries to make conspirancies. There are like that, in fact, but it's not too dramatic and detailed. The thrill is also not there since the 5 didn't experience so much hardship that can make the viewers cry outta hell (though Zian's experience in losing his father is a hard fate, but still, the storyline is light). It's like they are always successful and bright and amazing. They don't have flaws, only secrets, but it's not really convincing. The antagonists also died so easily. They didn't even make a successful plan against the empire, they're a failure, and it's making me hang. Though I want the protagonist to succeed in the end, as a viewer, I also want thrill. I also want to see how brilliant and evil other characters are. LOL!!! (My bad). The friendship and romance part, is sweet and inspiring, somehow.

Acting/Cast..
- Of course, Uvin Wang is definitely perfect for the role. She's been awesome and amazing in Superstar Academy and Novoland, The Castle in the Sky 2, and she's really impressive in the Chang'An Youth. (She can't make me her fangirl if she's not). She's so cool when in guise-as-a-man; her gorgeousness as a lady is given. She's the first one who encouraged me to watch this show.
-My 2nd favorite cast is Lin Xin Yuan. As a fanatic of "The Untamed", I'm really happy to see its cast on other show, the same happiness seeing Qi Pei Xin in 'The Chang'An Youth'. Though the attitude he carried on the 2 mentioned shows are different, he's really cute. Cute to the point that I cannot see him as a contender of ZiAn in Yiyi's love but I found him as a cute little brother. He and Yiyi seriously don't have a chemistry and I really find him cute again as a crown prince. I'm not used for his sterness, but because I find him cute, I'm going to consider hihihi.
-Caesar Wu, Xie Bin Bin and Liu Yi Chang also played their respective roles perfectly. I'm kinda accustomed in Caesar Wu's being stiff and careful in the show since I've watched Meteor Garden 2018 and Zian and Ximen is somehow the same in behaviour (I think), while it's my first time seeing Bin Bin and Liu Yi Chang. Bin Bin is fitted in being funny and entertaining, he's so good with it. That's why when I first time saw him on Beautiful Flower Reborn as an angry guy, I was kinda amazed. He's really good.. Yi Chang's soft and sweet face, on the other hand, also fits the character of being indestructible and carefree. I just don't like his obsession with Rou Rou (or is it Rou Rou that I don't like). I think Rou Rou is too old for him, hihihi. Whatever
-ANyway, the cast played their roles well. Kudos also to Han Junyi, he made my heart boil everytime he plots something heinous but he's pitiful when he died. He also made me moved when he's recalling his life with the late emperor, when he became fond of Yiyi and when he's with his daughter. I feel sad for his destiny. Huhuhuhu!!!!!!!


Music..
I'm fond of Yi Chang's "Proud of Me" and Caesar's "A Dream Out Of A Reach". Salute!


Rewatch Value...
- The story is light-weight and the actors playing it are fabulous. They are honestly the reasons why I'm fond of it. It's not boring, I swear. It's laughable and cute. There's also a part where I screamed so loud when Xiao Bai witnessed something, twice. Twas insane! It's a drama worth relieving of stress, especially during this pandemic.

WANG UVIN is L.O.V.E.

It's Exciting!!

Didn't expect that this Chinese drama will make me cry on its first episodes. It's a sweet romantic comedy type of show so I thought I would be laughing most of the time. Insane! Been in love already with it after hearing first its OST, "A Warm" by Liú Rén Yǔ, plus knowing that the amazing Eleanor Lee is the one portraying the main lead, I'm done. Her character is so inspiring, I really love her. Looking forward for her more extraordinary encounters with Leon Leong's character, and her breakthrough after sudden downfall with her so-called friend and family/company. Jiayou!
